They keep switching up the last two numbers and ring me loads of times every day. Such a pain! I've blocked them like five times already.

Got a call from 02046411483 saying I had reported some damage to a building. Not sure what they were on about!

Got a call from this number but didn't pick up and no voicemail was left. Feels like it could be spam or maybe some sort of scam.

Got a call but no voicemail left behind. Gonna just chalk it up as junk mail 🚫

I received an email mentioning this phone number, claiming it was connected to a dental clinic in Banbury and Santander direct debit payments. I've forwarded it to [email protected] for them to check out. Totally in line with what others have said here – be careful and avoid it completely!

Totally a scam! Don’t ever answer calls, texts, or emails from numbers or addresses you don’t know. Avoid talking to these fraudsters (look up ‘voice cloning scams’ to see what I mean). Always report suspicious contacts through the proper channels like the police or Ofcom. Send details of suspicious calls or silent rings by texting 7726 and make sure to reply if they ask you to confirm. Use your phone’s spam reporting option too. For dodgy texts, forward them to 7726 and report them as spam on your messaging app. Keep an eye out for replies because you might need to confirm again. Suspicious emails should be forwarded to ‘[email protected]’ and also flagged through the email phishing report tool (usually found in the menu with three dots). These systems do take action, but the more people report, the better chance the scammers get stopped. Search for 7726 and ‘[email protected]’ online for full details.

Got a call at 5.55 on a Friday evening on my home phone. The voice sounded odd and a bit robotic. The person said, “Hello! This is Jackie. No need to be concerned...” Yeah, right. I just ended the call and put them on my block list!

Looking at the comments here, it's pretty clear why scammers keep blitzing us Brits with calls, texts, and emails. Despite all the chatter about it on this site, most people don’t actually take any real steps to stop the scams. Loads of messages here explain what these scams involve, how we might actually fight back, and even alert us to the new AI tricks scammers are using now alongside the classic money-grabbing schemes. Apparently, thousands have already fallen victim to that voice cloning tech without realising they've been targeted, which could cause problems long down the line. It's honestly quite scary stuff.

Got a call from this number today, 5th June, but I ignored it. If it was important, they’d have left a voicemail, right? Stay safe everyone.

I didn’t pick up, my phone just flagged it as possible spam.

Got a text saying “Lloyds Banking Group: Your credit card application for £1,750 has been declined. If this wasnt you, ring us on 020 3885 0905” – problem is, I never applied for any credit card at all.

I got a call from someone who sounded like a robot talking about damp issues in my council flat. I kept asking them which address they meant, but they just ignored me and wouldn’t answer. Then, out of nowhere, the call just ended. Really annoying. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.

This number popped up on my phone earlier and it flagged it as a telemarketer, so I decided not to pick up.

My phone showed it might be spam, so I didn't pick up. Unsurprisingly, they didn’t leave a message.

My phone rang but I didn't pick up. It wasn't a number I've got saved, and they didn't leave a voicemail or anything.

I got a call from Three the other day, and honestly, if you don’t fancy being hassled with a sales pitch trying to upsell you, best steer clear. Pretty annoying really.

Picked up the call but the person hung up straight away, so I figured it was probably some sort of scam.

If you want to put a stop to scam callers, you really need to report them. I’ve put some info below to get you started. Also, do a quick search on 'voice cloning scams' and spend a bit of time – like 20 minutes – going through news stories, official advice, and reports on this. Loads of scammers are now using AI tech to mimic your voice in calls. If you find yourself chatting to one of these fraudsters for just a few seconds, or if your voicemail ends up recorded, or you end up calling back a strange number, or your voice turns up on social media, you could be in for endless trouble. Seriously, have a look into it and make sure everyone you know hears about it too. This new AI scam stuff is seriously dodgy!

I’ve been getting calls from this number for three days in a row now. I’m not familiar with anyone who lives around there. Pretty sure it’s a scam since they haven’t even bothered leaving a voicemail.

Got a call supposedly from EE, but it was so obviously a con. Don't fall for it!

I called but no one picked up. Honestly, don’t bother even starting with a hello.

Here’s some info on how to report scam calls. I’ve seen some folks here might’ve been targeted already. If you’ve spent more than a few seconds chatting to a scammer, left your voicemail with them, or called them back, or shared your voice on social media, you could be dealing with issues for ages. Look up terms like ‘voice cloning scams’ and ‘saying yes scams’ online. It’s worth spending some time, like 20 minutes, reading about it – there’s loads of news stories and advice from the police. A lot of scammers now use AI tech to record your voice and try to clone it, often to steal money from your bank, on top of their usual tricks. Make sure to read up on it and warn friends and family - this AI scam stuff is seriously dangerous!

i got a call from someone saying they were from sky, but i’d literally just been on the phone with another person claiming the same. i told them straight off that i knew it was dodgy and had just had a call like that seconds before. told them i wasn’t falling for their scam and gave them a piece of my mind. they hung up right after that! don’t let these scams catch you out, be careful folks!

Just got a call, no one spoke, then it suddenly ended. Definitely spam.

I got a call from a number I didn't know, which was almost identical to one I got back on 28 May 2026, except for the last digit being different. Feels like it could be one of those scam calls, if you ask me.
